Remember Kermit’s bland corporate life with Gil, Jill, and Bill that we as children prayed he would escape? That’s what adulthood is like.

Richard Moll fans must be appeased.

Take a look at the lawman
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh man, wonder if he’ll ever know
He’s in a bestselling show…

I think David Bowie’s death was a turning point where all our lives ended and we are in hell now.

Shout out to Rick Wakeman’s beautiful piano on this track, as a total non-sequitur.

Some exec is getting a million dollar bonus for this decision he made while on the shitter in his learjet.

I’m no financial expert, but is it bad for the market to wildly fluctuate just on a random statement from a serial liar?

Is this a low-key Escape to Witch Mountain reference?

All the toasted bagels in the comments here…wtf? Do you people not get your bagels hot out of the oven at 5am on the way home from a JFK redeye?!!? It’s really the only way to have a bagel. Heaven!

Tell me your bagel order and I will tell you *based on NYC cultural expectations* if you have won or lost your election for political office in NYC.

Erin Biba @erinbiba.bsky.social · 3d

One of my favorite things about NYC is whenever anyone runs for office here they are required to disclose their bagel order.

Between this and their statements decrying the upcoming protests as antifa actions paid for by Soros, the Trump administration and GOP are desperately courting violence.

No idea who he is, but searching his username brings up 4 accounts. That one, a blank one, and two with the same general handle and a rather disturbing photo. Not to kink shame, but…wow.

I’m really feeling how the adult penguins are all like “what’s the point?”

Assuming a pretty average 2500/month rent combined with 2100 for insurance that would leave them with about $400 a month for all their living expenses.
